Sophie loves her spelling homework.  Here’s what she has to say about it.

“The word scramble is really, really fun.”  In the word scramble challenge, Sophie chooses five of the week’s spelling words, scrambles the letters and asks me to unscramble them correctly.  If I succeed, I get a star.

“Spelling is good.”  Sophie is reading more and more, and sounding out words.  She’s very proud of herself when she nails one.  In addition to word scramble, she’s put words in alpha order and matched rhyming words.  I’m even having fun with the assignments.

And she still loves her math homework.  She’s learning to tell time, which is a good thing because we gave her a Swatch for her birthday and maybe she’ll actually be able to use it as intended before too long.

First grade seems to be going well for our little one so far.  Despite the fact that she’s the youngest in her class.  I’m very proud of her.
